Thank you so much for having me.

It's a very blue-collar job. It's very dangerous. It's workers that work on the bottom of the sea and the bottom of the ocean performing, you know, kind of routine maintenance and repair on pipelines, on, you know, underwater structures. It's typically extremely dark. There's not a lot of visibility. And the living conditions of these saturation divers is just so...

It's unlike anything I think that is really out there in the world except for maybe like an astronaut living in space. So in order for those divers to be able to operate that far beneath sea level, you know, because of the differential and atmospheric pressure, they actually have to live in a pressurized kind of tube onboard a ship for 28 days.

And during that time, typically it's three divers that go into sat together in one chamber, but they're living kind of on top of each other. The chamber is very, very small. You know, you're typically going to the bathroom like less than six, three feet away from where you're sleeping.

For a month straight, yeah, with the same two other guys. And when it's time to go to work, you all go into this little sphere, this bell structure, but it's lowered down to depth, at which point the divers then come out. They're hooked up to the bell and then to the surface of the ship through an umbilical that feeds them all of their gas and their heat and their power.

And then they'll conduct these operations on the bottom of the sea for eight hour shifts at a time. So it's like a really, there's nothing glamorous about this job. And yet, there were many sat divers that were available to us over the course of shooting this movie. And some of them were the actual characters that we played in the movie.

But the one thing that we found in common with all of them is just how much they loved it, which was very confusing to us.
